Thou who didst waken from his summer dreams The blue Mediterranean, where he lay, Lull'd by the coil of his crystalline streams Beside a pumice isle in Bai's bay, And saw in sleep old palaces and towers Quivering within the wave's intenser day, All overgrown with azure moss and flowers So sweet, the sense faints picturing them.

All Nature to my heart, and thought to make
A paradise of earth for one sweet sake.

And like light can flee,
But above all other things,

Thou art love and life!
